...from shirtsleeves to snowboots...


...guess what greeted us when we got back to ND from Omaha...that's right - that's snow swirling through the air there - and Scout braved the 50 mph winds to go outside and pick the final bits of lettuce before they froze...

...and this is the snowy wonderland - it's a wet heavy snow - Scout threw a snowball at me (the first of the season) and it felt like a baseball...and you can see the swings swinging themselves in the wind...

...so...have you had your first snow yet?...

  2. No snow yet, but we had our first freeze last night. Was supposed to be a frost so I jsut covered the tomato and basil with sheets so I'm hoping they did OK under there even though it got colder than predicted.

  3. I heard there were some snowflakes but I didn't see 'em with my own eyes so it doesn't count! Stay warm!

  6. We've had a few frosts but it would be unusual to have snow in most parts of the UK before January.

    On the hills and mountains it's a different story!

    We haven't even had a killing frost yet! Though that's not normal.
    And in answer to your other post: We say scarecrow here. And great job on the costume!! :)
